YOU DON’T NEED A BETTER YEAR YOU NEED YAH’S KINGDOM




Ladies and gentlemen, I want to begin this teaching by dismantling a very popular illusion. It is the illusion that time changes people. Time does not change people. A calendar does not transform a life. A new year does not produce a new destiny. What changes a life is not a date. It is a government. Until the authority that rules your decisions changes, your outcomes will remain the same no matter how many years pass. The greatest deception of our generation is the belief that turning a page on the calendar equals progress.




That is why many people enter January with excitement and leave December with frustration. They made resolutions but they never changed rulership. They set goals but they never shifted government. And whenever government remains the same, the system will always reproduce the same results. Yahusha never preached a message about years. He never announced a new season by date. He announced a new season by authority. The Bible says in MATTITHYAHU 4:17, “From that time Yahusha began to preach, saying, Repent: for the Kingdom of Heaven has arrived.” Notice carefully, He did not say a new religion has arrived, a new tradition has arrived, or a new church system has arrived. He said a Kingdom has arrived. That is governmental language. That is authority language. That is rulership language.




Now the word repent does not mean feel sorry. Repent means to change your mind, to change how you think, to change how you interpret reality. Why? Because a new government had come. And whenever a new government arrives, the citizens must change how they think if they expect to benefit from it. That is why ROMAIYM 12:2 says, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Transformation is not emotional. It is governmental. You cannot live in a new Kingdom with an old mindset.




I want to make a bold declaration at the very beginning of this teaching. This is not a message about starting a new year. This is a message about restoring The Most High Yah’s government over your life. And until The Most High Yah governs your priorities, your calendar will continue to disappoint you.




The Bible tells us in MISHLEI 29:2, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked rule, the people groan.” That verse is not just about nations. It is about lives. When the wrong authority rules your decisions, your life groans. When fear rules, you groan. When money rules, you groan. When opinions rule, you groan. But when righteousness—The Most High Yah’s government—rules, your life begins to rejoice.




Many people are praying for change while resisting government. They say, “The Most High, bless me,” but they have not submitted to the King. They say, “The Most High, give me peace,” but peace is the product of order, not prayer alone. YESHA’YAHU 9:6 says, “And the government shall be upon his shoulder… and of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end.” Peace does not increase because you are emotional. Peace increases because government increases. Wherever The Most High Yah’s government expands, peace follows automatically.




Let me say this carefully. The Most High Yah does not bless chaos. He blesses alignment. Blessing is not a reward for effort. It is a result of order. That is why MATTITHYAHU 6:33 is not a suggestion. It is a constitutional principle. Yahusha said, “Seek first the Kingdom of The Most High Yah and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” He did not say, “Pray for addition.” He said, “Align with priority and addition becomes inevitable.”




A new year will not change your finances if money still governs you. A new year will not change your relationships if emotions still rule you. A new year will not change your stress levels if worry still sits on the throne of your mind. What must change is who sits on the throne. The throne determines the flow. Authority determines outcomes.




That is why Yahusha said in LUQAS 17:21, “The Kingdom of The Most High Yah is within you.” He was saying, “The government has come to reside in you, but it must be allowed to rule you. You can host the Kingdom and still resist its authority. You can be saved and still be undisciplined. You can love The Most High Yah and still live under the wrong government.”




So hear me clearly today. You do not need a better year. You need a better government. And when government changes, systems obey, circumstances respond, resources align, peace settles, direction becomes clear. The year does not control you. You control the year when you are under the right authority.




This teaching is not about resolutions. Resolutions are human attempts to manage outcomes. This is about constitutional decisions—decisions that restore the King to His rightful place. Because when the King rules, the Kingdom works. And when the Kingdom works, your life begins to function the way it was designed to function.




Now, if you are ready not just for a new season, but for a new government, then we must begin by understanding what Yahusha meant when He said, “Seek first.” Because priority is not about importance. It is about authority.




Now let us move carefully into the next phase of this teaching, because misunderstanding this section will cause you to misinterpret everything else. Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 6:33, “But seek ye first the Kingdom of The Most High Yah and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” That verse is one of the most quoted scriptures in the Bible and one of the least understood. The problem is not that people don’t quote it. The problem is that they spiritualize it instead of constitutionalizing it.




Yahusha was not giving emotional advice. He was stating a governmental law. When He used the word first, He was not speaking chronologically. He was speaking authoritatively. In a Kingdom, first does not mean do this before you do other things. First means who has the right to command everything else. Priority is not about sequence. Priority is about rulership. Whatever is first in your life governs every other decision in your life.




That is why Yahusha did not say seek the Kingdom only, but seek the Kingdom first. He acknowledged there would be many pursuits competing for your loyalty—career, money, relationships, ambition, fear. But He said one must sit on the throne.




Let me say this plainly. Whatever you seek first is your god, because whatever you seek first determines what you obey, what you protect, what you sacrifice for, and what you trust. SHEMOTH 20:3 says, “You shall have no other gods before Me.” That word before does not mean in front of. It means ahead of, above, in priority. The Most High Yah was not saying you cannot have other interests. He was saying you cannot have another authority.




Yahusha understood Kingdom law. That is why He never chased provision. He chased purpose. He never prayed for food. He trusted order. He said in verse 32, “Your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” In other words, the King is already aware of the needs of His citizens. A good government does not need reminders. It needs compliance.




Now watch this carefully. Yahusha connects seeking first with addition. He does not connect addition to prayer, fasting, or sacrifice in this verse. He connects addition to alignment. That tells us something powerful. The Most High Yah’s system is not fueled by anxiety. It is fueled by order. When order is restored, provision is released. YESHA’YAHU 1:19 says, “If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.” Notice the land was already good. The problem was never supply. The problem was obedience. The Kingdom is never lacking resources. The Kingdom is only lacking compliant citizens.




Now let me redefine the word seek for you, because many people think seeking means wishing, hoping, or praying occasionally. The word seek in Scripture means to pursue intentionally, to study diligently, to explore thoroughly, and to desire passionately. Seeking is not passive. Seeking is aggressive alignment. That is why YIRMEYAHU 29:13 says, “And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart.” The Most High Yah does not respond to casual interest. He responds to pursuit.




In every Kingdom, access is granted to those who respect the King’s authority enough to learn His ways. Here’s the danger. Many believers want Kingdom benefits without Kingdom discipline. They want addition without submission. They want results without regulation.




But TEHILLIYM 103:7 says, “He made known His ways unto Mosheh, His acts unto the children of Yashar’el.” The children saw miracles but never understood systems. Mosheh understood government. That is why miracles followed Mosheh, but Yashar’el wondered.




Seeking first means placing The Most High Yah’s government above your feelings, above your logic, above your culture, above your fears. It means before you decide, you ask, what does the Kingdom say? Before you spend, you ask, what does the Kingdom authorize? Before you react, you ask, what does the King require?




Let me say something strong but loving. If The Most High Yah is only consulted after you make decisions, He is not first. First means He decides and you agree. First means His Word settles the matter before emotions enter the discussion. First means obedience is not negotiated.




That is why Yahusha said in LUQAS 6:46, “And why call ye Me, The Most High, The Most High, and do not the things which I say?” Lordship without obedience is religious language, not Kingdom living. In a Kingdom, words do not define loyalty. Submission does.




So when Yahusha said, “Seek first,” He was announcing this law: if you allow The Most High Yah’s government to rule your priorities, He will personally manage your provision. That is not poetry. That is policy. Heaven has policies.




And here’s the good news. When the Kingdom becomes first, stress loses authority. Fear loses its voice. Worry becomes illegal. Because when the King governs, the citizen rests.




So before we talk about changing habits, goals, or behaviors, we must answer this question honestly: who is governing your life right now? Because the wrong government will sabotage every year you enter.




And this leads us directly to the reason most people never experience a true reset: because they try to change outcomes without changing authority.




Now, let me take you deeper, because if we do not deal honestly with this section, everything else will sound good but produce little fruit. Many people sincerely love The Most High Yah, attend church faithfully, read their Bibles occasionally, pray when they are under pressure, and still never experience a genuine reset in life. Not because The Most High Yah is unfaithful, but because principles have been violated.




You see, The Most High Yah is not moved by sincerity alone. He is moved by alignment. The Kingdom of The Most High Yah does not operate on intentions. It operates on laws. And laws are not impressed by tears. Laws respond only to compliance.




GALATIYM 6:7 says, “Be not deceived; The Most High Yah is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” That verse is not a threat. It is a principle. It applies to believers and unbelievers alike. A principle works for whoever applies it. Gravity does not ask whether you are saved before it pulls you down. In the same way, Kingdom laws do not ask whether you attend church before they produce results.




Now let me explain why most people never experience a true reset even though they desperately want one. First, most people try to change behavior without changing thinking. They adjust habits, but they never adjust mindset. But ROMAIYM 12:2 is clear: be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Transformation does not begin with action. It begins with perception.




As long as you think like a victim, you will live like one. As long as you think like a servant instead of a citizen, you will struggle unnecessarily. The Kingdom demands a new mental constitution. Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 4, “Repent: for the Kingdom of Heaven has arrived.” Repent means change how you think. Why? Because a new government had arrived, and old thinking cannot function under new authority.




Many people are saved but they still think like slaves. They pray like beggars instead of citizens. They expect scarcity in a Kingdom of abundance. That mindset will sabotage every reset attempt.




Second, people want blessing without discipline. They want The Most High Yah to override disorder instead of correcting it. But IVRIYM 12:11 tells us, “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful; later on, however, it produces righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” Notice the word trained. The Kingdom trains its citizens. Discipline is not punishment. Discipline is preparation for rulership. In every Kingdom, discipline precedes authority. The Most High Yah will not entrust influence to someone who cannot manage themselves.




That is why Yahusha said in LUQAS 16:10, “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much.” Faithfulness is not about opportunity. It is about order. Many people want The Most High Yah to enlarge their territory, but they have not governed the territory they already possess.




Third, and this one is critical, people seek results without respecting law. They want outcomes without understanding systems. They want miracles instead of mastery. But HOSHEA 4:6 says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Not lack of prayer, not lack of church attendance—lack of knowledge. Knowledge of what? Knowledge of how the Kingdom works. You cannot break a law. You can only break yourself against it. When you violate Kingdom law, the law does not fail. You do.




That is why Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 7, “The man who hears these sayings of Mine and does them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” Notice the house still faces storms. Kingdom citizens are not storm-proof, but they are collapse-proof.




Let me say something very important. Grace forgives rebellion, but law governs success. Grace gets you back into the Kingdom, but law teaches you how to live there. Salvation restores relationship. Obedience restores function. And many believers stop at forgiveness and never graduate into government.




That is why resets fail. People shout at the altar but never submit in private. They cry in January but ignore principles in February. They declare faith but violate order. And by December they’re asking The Most High Yah the same questions again.




The Kingdom does not reset lives emotionally. The Kingdom resets lives constitutionally. That means something must change at the level of decision-making. Authority must be reestablished. Government must be restored.




So hear me clearly. A reset is not The Most High Yah doing something new. A reset is you submitting to something eternal. The Most High Yah’s laws do not change with seasons. Heaven does not have New Year’s resolutions. Heaven has unchanging principles. And when you align with those principles, your life begins to move in a new direction automatically.




That is why this teaching is not about inspiration. It is about decisions—decisions that restore The Most High Yah’s rulership over every area of your life. Decisions that are not emotional but constitutional.




And the first decision—before money, before time, before relationships—is the decision to settle ownership. Because until you decide who owns your life, you will never know who governs it.




Now, we arrive at the first and most fundamental decision in this Kingdom reset, and I want you to listen carefully because everything else depends on this. If this decision is not settled, every other decision will eventually collapse.




Before The Most High Yah can govern your time, your money, your relationships, or your future, ownership must be resolved. The greatest source of stress in human life is not lack of money, lack of opportunity, or lack of education. The greatest source of stress is ownership confusion. When you think you own what you were only designed to manage, pressure becomes inevitable. But when ownership is clear, responsibility becomes peaceful.




The Bible says in TEHILLIYM 24:1, “The earth is The Most High’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Notice what The Most High Yah claims: everything. Not just the land, not just resources—He says even the people belong to Him. That means your life is not yours. Your body is not yours. Your future is not yours. You are not an owner. You are a steward.




Sha’ul makes this unmistakably clear in I CORINTHIYM 6:19–20. He says, “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Ruach Ha’Qodesh who is in you, whom you have from The Most High Yah, and you are not your own? For you were bought with a price.” Purchased property does not negotiate with the buyer. Ownership removes debate.




Now this is where many believers struggle. They want Yahusha as Savior, but they resist Him as Owner. They want forgiveness without surrender. They want heaven without governance. But you cannot receive the benefits of a Kingdom while rejecting the authority of the King.




In every Kingdom, citizenship begins with ownership transfer. When a citizen enters a Kingdom, they submit their independence to the authority of the King in exchange for protection, provision, and identity. That is why the Kingdom of The Most High Yah is not a democracy. In a democracy, the people vote. In a Kingdom, the King decides and the citizens benefit.




BERE’SHIYTH 1:26 says, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion.” Dominion was never ownership. Dominion was delegated authority under The Most High Yah’s ownership. Adam was never an owner. Adam was a governor. When Adam forgot that, he fell. And every time you forget that, stress re-enters your life.




Let me say this very plainly. You cannot give The Most High Yah your life. It already belongs to Him. What you give The Most High Yah is permission to govern what He owns. That is why ROMAIYM 12:1 says, “Present your bodies as a living sacrifice.” A sacrifice does not control where it goes. Once placed on the altar, it belongs entirely to The Most High Yah.




This is why many people are tired. They are carrying burdens they were never designed to carry. Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 11:28, “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Why? Because rest is the reward of surrendered ownership. When you stop owning, you stop worrying.




Here is the reset decision: this year I manage what I no longer claim. That statement alone can change your entire life. When you wake up in the morning and say, “The Most High, this body belongs to You. This mind belongs to You. This day belongs to You,” pressure begins to lift immediately. Why? Because responsibility follows ownership. If The Most High Yah owns it, The Most High Yah maintains it.




Yahusha lived this way. He said in YAHCHANAN 5:19, “The Son can do nothing of Himself, but only what He sees the Father do.” That was not weakness. That was perfect alignment. Yahusha never stressed because He never assumed ownership. He knew His assignment, not His possession.




When ownership is transferred, stewardship begins. And stewardship is peaceful. A steward is accountable but never anxious. A steward reports but never panics. A steward obeys but never fears loss, because the loss does not belong to him.




This is why the Bible says in I KEPHA 5:7, “Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you.” You cannot cast what you think you own. You only release what you know belongs to someone else.




So let me ask you a serious Kingdom question. Who owns your life right now? If fear owns it, fear will govern it. If money owns it, money will dominate it. If The Most High Yah owns it, The Most High Yah will protect it.




Ownership determines authority, and authority determines outcomes. Until this decision is made, nothing else will work consistently. But once ownership is settled, direction becomes clear, peace becomes normal, and obedience becomes natural.




And now that ownership is transferred, the next question becomes unavoidable. If The Most High Yah owns my life, then who controls my time?




Now that ownership has been settled, we must confront the next unavoidable issue—time. Because time is the loudest proof of priority. You can say anything you want about what matters to you, but your time will always expose the truth. Time never lies. Time reveals loyalty.




The Kingdom of The Most High Yah does not first demand your money. It demands your attention. Because whatever controls your time controls your life. TEHILLIYM 90:12 says, “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Wisdom is not information. Wisdom is the ability to manage time according to purpose.




Yahusha never rushed, yet He never wasted time. He lived with divine urgency, not anxiety. Why? Because He understood assignment. In YAHCHANAN 9:4, He said, “I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.” Notice that statement: “I must.” That is the language of submission to assignment. Yahusha organized His time around purpose, not pressure.




Most people live pressured lives because they are responding to demands instead of governing priorities. But in a Kingdom, the King sets the agenda, not circumstances. That is why MATTITHYAHU 6:33 begins with the word seek. Seeking is intentional. Seeking is scheduled. Seeking is deliberate. You do not stumble into the Kingdom accidentally.




Let me say this carefully. You cannot seek first casually. Seeking requires structure. It requires discipline. It requires intentional space in your life. That is why Yahusha often withdrew to pray. Not because He was weak, but because He was aligned.




MARQOS 1:35 says, “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Yahusha got up, left the house, and went off to a solitary place where He prayed.” He guarded time with the Father because the Father governed His mission.




If The Most High Yah owns your life, then He must also govern your calendar. But here is the problem. Many believers give The Most High Yah leftovers. They say, “The Most High, I’ll seek You if I have time.” That statement alone reveals who is first.




In a Kingdom, the King does not receive leftovers. He receives priority. QOHELETH 3:1 says, “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.” Purpose determines time allocation. When you do not know your purpose, you waste time. When you do not submit your time, you sabotage destiny.




Let me give you a Kingdom principle you must never forget. What you do daily determines what you become eventually. Daily habits shape eternal outcomes. That is why Yahusha said in LUQAS 9:23, “If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” The Kingdom is not lived weekly. It is lived daily.




Submitting your time to the Kingdom means you establish non-negotiable moments of Kingdom engagement—time in the Word, time in reflection, time in learning, time in obedience. Not because The Most High Yah needs it, but because you need government. Time in the presence of the King recalibrates your thinking.




Here is another truth. What you do not schedule, you do not value. If the Kingdom is important but not planned, it is not first. Planning is proof of priority. Yahusha planned His movements, His rest, His teaching, His solitude. He never allowed crowds to dictate His calendar.




In MARQOS 1, when the disciples said, “Everyone is looking for You,” Yahusha replied, “Let us go somewhere else.” He was not driven by popularity. He was driven by purpose.




When time is submitted to The Most High Yah, confusion decreases, direction sharpens, stress diminishes. Why? Because you are no longer reacting. You are responding to assignment. The Kingdom never rushes. It flows.




So the reset decision is this: this year, my time belongs to the Kingdom. Not when it is convenient. Not when nothing else is happening. First. Because whatever receives your first attention receives authority over your life.




And once time is governed, something else must follow naturally. Because wherever time is submitted, resources will eventually align.




Which brings us to the next decision—the one many people fear, misunderstand, or resist.




Now, we come to a subject that exposes hearts faster than almost anything else—money. Not because money is evil, but because money is a revealer of trust. Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 6:21, “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” He did not say your treasure follows your heart. He said your heart follows your treasure. In other words, money reveals who governs you.




Let me say something that may surprise you. The Most High Yah is not after your money. The Most High Yah has no shortage of resources. TEHILLIYM 50:10 says, “For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.” The Most High Yah is not poor, and heaven is not bankrupt.




What The Most High Yah is after is alignment. Because in a Kingdom, economics is never independent of government. The problem with finances in the lives of many believers is not lack of income. It is lack of order. Money without order becomes a burden. Money without government produces anxiety.




That is why MISHLEI 10:22 says, “The blessing of The Most High Yah makes rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.” Notice that phrase: no sorrow. When money comes through Kingdom alignment, it does not bring stress with it.




In every Kingdom, the economy belongs to the King. Citizens do not own resources. They access them. That is why Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 6:32, “For your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things.” Governments exist to supply citizens. If a government fails to provide, it loses credibility. The Most High Yah’s government has never failed. Only citizens have disconnected themselves from its laws.




This is why Yahusha introduced the principle of addition. He said, “All these things shall be added unto you.” Added by whom? By the King. That means provision is not something you chase. It is something that follows alignment. When you run after money, money becomes your master. When you submit to the Kingdom, money becomes your servant.




Now, let us talk clearly about a Kingdom law that many misunderstand—tithing. Tithing is not giving. Giving is generosity. Tithing is acknowledgment of kingship. In every Kingdom, tribute is brought to the King to recognize authority. That is why MISHLEI 3:9 says, “Honour The Most High with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase.” Honour precedes abundance. Firstfruits is a statement of priority.




When Abraham gave a tenth to Malkiy-Tsedeq in BERE’SHIYTH 14, the law was not about percentage. It was about recognition of authority. Abraham was saying, “I acknowledge your government over my victory.” And IVRIYM 7 tells us that Mashiach still receives that acknowledgment today. This is not a church issue. This is a Kingdom issue.




Let me say this carefully. If money controls you, The Most High Yah cannot trust you with more of it. LUQAS 16:11 says, “If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?” Money is a test, not a reward. It reveals whether you are governed or independent.




Many people pray for increase while violating the very system that produces it. But The Most High Yah does not multiply what rebels against His authority. He multiplies what honours His law.




MALAKI 3 is not a threat. It is an economic policy statement. The Most High Yah says, “Prove Me now herewith… if I will not open you the windows of heaven.” Why? Because obedience authorizes release.




Here is the reset decision: this year, my finances will operate under Kingdom law, not fear. Fear hoards. Kingdom stewardship releases. Fear says, “What if I don’t have enough?” Kingdom faith says, “My King is responsible for my supply.”




When finances are aligned, peace follows. When peace follows, clarity increases. And when clarity increases, something else must be addressed—the people you allow into your life. Because relationships can either reinforce Kingdom order or sabotage it.




Now, we must address an area that quietly determines the speed, health, and direction of your life—relationships. Many people fail not because they lack faith, but because they allow the wrong voices access to their future.




In the Kingdom of The Most High Yah, relationships are never accidental. They are assignments. The Bible says in AMOS 3:3, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” Agreement here does not mean liking each other. It means alignment of purpose.




In a Kingdom, relationships exist to advance assignment. Whenever a relationship does not respect purpose, it becomes a distraction—no matter how emotional it feels.




Yahusha understood this. That is why He did not entrust Himself to everyone who followed Him. YAHCHANAN 2:24 says, “But Yahusha did not commit Himself unto them, because He knew all men.” Love does not require access. Compassion does not require proximity. Even Yahusha practiced relational governance.




Let me say something that may challenge you. Not everyone who loves you qualifies to walk with you. Love is universal, but access is selective. In the Kingdom, access is granted based on purpose alignment, not emotional attachment.




MISHLEI 13:20 says, “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.” That is a law, not a suggestion. Wisdom is transferable. So is foolishness. You become like the people you consistently allow to influence your thinking.




Now understand this. Relationships are not evil. People are not the problem. Misaligned access is the problem. Some people are seasonal. Some are instructional. Some are covenantal. But if you treat everyone the same, you will violate Kingdom order.




Yahusha had crowds, disciples, twelve, and three. Same love, different access. Even within the Kingdom, order exists. And when order is violated, confusion follows.




This year, part of your Kingdom reset must include asking a very honest question about every significant relationship in your life: does this relationship reinforce or resist The Most High Yah’s government in me?




Sha’ul says in I CORINTHIYM 15:33, “Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.” Notice the phrase, “Be not deceived.” Corruption often happens quietly. It happens through conversations, jokes, opinions, fears, and advice that sound reasonable but undermine faith.




Many believers sabotage their own progress by seeking counsel from people who do not share Kingdom values. MISHLEI 11:14 says, “In the multitude of counsellors there is safety.” But safety only exists when counselors are aligned with The Most High Yah’s government. Otherwise, counsel becomes confusion.




Here is a reset decision: this year, my relationships will be filtered by Kingdom purpose. That does not mean cutting everyone off. It means redefining access. Some people can receive love at a distance. Some people belong in your prayer life, not your decision-making process.




When relationships are reordered, emotional exhaustion decreases, clarity increases, peace returns—and when peace returns, you are finally ready to operate effectively in your assignment: your work.




Now, we move into an area where many believers unknowingly surrender their authority—work. For most people, work has become a burden instead of an assignment, a source of stress instead of influence. But in the Kingdom of The Most High Yah, work was never meant to drain you. It was designed to deploy you.




The Bible tells us in BERE’SHIYTH 1:28 that The Most High Yah blessed man and said, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion.” Notice carefully—work existed before the fall. That means work is not a curse. Toil is. Work is Kingdom activity. Toil is labor without purpose.




Adam’s first assignment was not worship. It was stewardship. The Most High Yah placed them in the garden to work it and keep it. That tells us something powerful. Work is a Kingdom assignment to manage territory on behalf of the King.




When you understand this, your job changes from employment to deployment. Most people say, “I work for a company.” That is incorrect. You may be paid by a company, but you work for a King.




QOLASIYM 3:23 says, “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to The Most High, and not unto men.” That is not poetic encouragement. That is a Kingdom mindset shift.




Yahusha never looked for a job. He lived on assignment. He said in YAHCHANAN 17:18, “As thou hast sent Me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.” That means every believer is sent, not hired.




Your workplace is your territory. Your office is your mission field. Your business is your platform for influence. This is why excellence is non-negotiable in the Kingdom. Excellence is not perfection. Excellence is obedience expressed through quality.




DANIY’EL 6:3 says, “Then this Daniy’EL was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent ruach was in him.” Excellence attracted promotion, not prayer alone.




Let me say this clearly. Promotion in the Kingdom is not begged for; it is attracted. When you solve problems, you gain influence. When you add value, you receive favor.




MISHLEI 22:29 says, “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings.” Diligence is Kingdom currency.




Many believers want The Most High Yah to remove them from difficult workplaces instead of empowering them to transform those environments. But Yahusha prayed in YAHCHANAN 17, “I pray not that Thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that Thou shouldest keep them from the evil.” The Kingdom advances through presence, not withdrawal.




Here is the reset decision: this year, I will see my work as Kingdom assignment, not survival activity. When you walk into your workplace knowing you represent the government of heaven, fear diminishes and confidence rises. You stop competing emotionally and start governing quietly.




When work is redefined, identity stabilizes. And when identity stabilizes, something else becomes essential knowledge—because no citizen can function effectively without understanding the laws of the Kingdom.




Now we arrive at one of the most neglected but most dangerous areas in the life of a believer—understanding. The greatest enemy of the Kingdom is not persecution. It is ignorance.




That is why Yahusha said in MATTITHYAHU 13, when anyone hears the message of the Kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown. Notice something critical. The enemy does not steal the word before it is heard. He steals it before it is understood. That tells us the battleground is not attendance. It is comprehension.




You can sit in church for years and still live powerless if you never understand how the Kingdom works. HOSHEA 4:6 says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Not sinners—My people.




Destruction is not always dramatic. It is often slow, quiet, and internal. Ignorance causes believers to misuse faith, misapply Scripture, and misunderstand The Most High Yah.




Let me give you a Kingdom law you must never forget. Nothing is yours until you understand it. Ownership follows understanding. You cannot operate what you do not comprehend.




That is why Yahusha taught constantly. Teaching is the transfer of government knowledge. Religion entertains. The Kingdom educates. Religious consumption makes you feel good. Kingdom learning makes you effective.




YA’AQOV 1:22 says, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only.” You cannot do what you do not understand.




This year, your reset must include disciplined Kingdom learning—studying Scripture, revisiting teachings, meditating on principles, and applying truth consistently. Knowledge in the Kingdom is cumulative. The more you learn, the more you see.




And once understanding grows, something powerful happens. You begin to expect results, not hope for them.




Now we come to the final decision in this reset, and it is the decision that separates Kingdom citizens from religious survivors—expectation.




Expectation is not wishful thinking. Expectation is confidence in law. When you know how a system works, you do not hope. You expect.




Yahusha said all these things shall be added unto you. That is not optimism. That is policy. Addition is the responsibility of the King, not the citizen. Your responsibility is priority. When priority is right, addition is automatic.




TEHILLIYM 23:1 says, “The Most High is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Want is eliminated when leadership is trusted. Survival thinking belongs to slaves. Expectation belongs to citizens.




Here is the reset declaration: this year I stop guessing. I expect results. Not because of arrogance, but because of alignment. When law is honored, outcome is guaranteed.




Let us summarize this reset clearly. These are not resolutions. These are constitutional decisions. Ownership transferred. Time submitted. Finances aligned. Relationships reordered. Work redefined. Understanding pursued. Expectation established.




When government is restored, outcomes change. The Kingdom works every time.




Let me close with this truth. You don’t need a better year. You need a better government. When the King rules, peace follows. Provision follows. Direction follows.




YESHA’YAHU 32:17 says, “And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.” That is Kingdom living.




So I declare over you—this is not your year of struggle. This is your year of alignment. As you seek first the Kingdom, everything else will fall into
